The expression of
robo1dsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of
Scer\GAL4Mef2.247 leads to significant decreases in migration velocity, as well as in filopodial and lamellopodial extensions in embryonic heart cardioblasts, as compared to controls.
Males expressing
robodsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of
Scer\GAL4Poxn.14 show an increase in midline crossing by foreleg gustatory receptor neuron (GRN) axons, with an increase in GRN axonal projections in the commissural region. Females expressing
robodsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of
Scer\GAL4Poxn.14 often have visible crossing of the midline by foreleg GRN axons (this midline crossing is normally only seen in wild-type males, and not in wild-type females).
